[Disclaimer: I work on PyWX]

If you are willing to consider Linux + AOLserver + Python, you should
consider PyWX (see http://pywx.idyll.org/).  Don't be turned off by
the server name; AOLserver is a free, open source web server that is
quite well designed and just happens to be supported by AOL.  You say
performance is an issue and AOLserver excels here--it is multithreaded
so it is quite easy to use persistent database connections or to cache
other information in memory.  The AOLserver API is a bit different
than CGI but very easy to use and fully accessible by your Python
scripts.

Yours,
Michael
